    Diabetes Care: Obesity, high blood pressure, and lipid imbalance trigger a progressive loss of energy generation capacity in the heart

    Scientists at the CNIC have discovered that metabolic cardiovascular risk factors diminish the capacity of the heart to use glucose as an energy source

    The image represent glucose uptake in the brain measured by positron emission tomography in middle-aged individuals with low (top) or high (bottom) sustained cardiovascular risk over 5 years. The colors represent cerebral glucose consumption, with red indicating higher consumption and blue lower consumption
